Stone Sour have released a live studio video for their new track Mercy.

The footage was captured at Sphere Studios in North Hollywood, California, where they recorded upcoming album Hydrograd with producer Jay Ruston.

The follow-up to House Of Gold & Bones Part 2 will be released on June 30 via Roadrunner Records, with Corey Taylor, Josh Rand, Roy Mayorga, Johny Chow and Christian Martucci previously unveiling the tracks Fabuless, Song #3 and Taipei Person/Allah Tea from the new record.

Speaking previously about the album, frontman Taylor said: “We have six singles on this album. I’m really excited – this album is great because it’s got elements of everything. It’s got the heavy energy of the 80s, there’s punk moments, there’s hard rock moments – all the great amalgam of music.

“There’s even jazz and hip-hop moments, it’s really, really cool. It’s probably the coolest album I’ve made since the first Slipknot album. I feel very confident making that statement because it’s so good.”

Stone Sour will head out on tour across Europe from mid-November. Find a list of their live shows below, along with the Hydrograd tracklist and cover art.
